It is the Last days,
Although these people love to attribute this to God and not their greed, they like to call it the blessing of God, for the most part, it is really unconnected to the True God. I am not opposed to people who are trying out new ventures with wealth if they have a publicly known means of acquiring it

But when a man hide in the pretense of being a man of God and live in opulence, flaunting "Pomp and pageantry of Papal Rome" it becomes suspicious especially in a society like Nigeria where there are no checks and balances, where people suddenly stumble on wealth and no government investigation to their source of wealth, of course because the government is corrupt themselves.

However, i am not deceived by these guys who buys private Jets and brag about it or attribute it to Jesus, for some of us who have been around for some time watching the events and emergence of the Nigerian churches, we have some scary facts.

These whole thing began in the 80s, when the Nigerian Economy was fast crumbling, Young men couldn't get a Job after school, many of them venture into Ministry and started a congregation, Redeem had just begun to gain popularity after the death of Pa Josiah Akindayomi, the founder, Deeper life was also the talk of the town, Assemblies of God was fast rising, Church of God Mission, CAC and many other churches were blossoming because the hearts of men were sincerely seeking God
Some Jobless youths saw an opportunity through the gathering of Crowd, Young men who were in the bank and secular profession. who had a minuscule interest and knowledge of the Bible started renting space and buying properties with proceed from the church and naming churches, there was a palpable desperation for fame and renown, Ignorant congregants who are Lazy to study the Bible for themselves were gathering around these fleecers , they became popular and famous among young Nigerians, some penetrated the Universities, with several Names, like Believers Love world, Rhema Chapel, covenant people, there was no short supply of their names
And in the quest to outdo themselves, some of these greedy men enters into the Dark world to obtain Power, and they have certain emblems that give them away as Cultists, a Big ring, an opulence lifestyle, a totally strange arrogance unheard of among Christians, they boast and brag and threaten and if you are discerning enough, you can tell they are strangers to the "commonwealth of Israel"
They give money out in the Public as against the doctrine of Christ on giving, they display false miracles through sponsored members of their congregation, Their members are seemingly hypnotized and because they are themselves Biblical Illiterates, cannot question their clergymen, rather they will fight and curse or oppose any opposition of their "god of men"
[/b]
[b]These guys are given a mandate from the Dark Kingdom, to advertise their opulence lifestyles, it is a condition to keep their illusory wealth going, so that other gullible so called "men of god" (sad to associate them to the Real God) will flood the cult where they obtain illusory power, It is a direct affront against the Kingdom of Christ, You can confirm by the many scandals that trails them that they are not representing Jesus Christ, they have their kingdom here, they don't wait for the kingdom of God.
They only hide under the guise of Christianity to keep their occultist operation going, There are two revival going on simultaneously, It is the Revival of the Kingdom of God and the Revival of the Kingdom of Darkness, certainly the Former will have the day. It is part of the Devil's strategy to enlist million into destruction
their members are called the Devil's congregation, they serve God for rewards not so much because God is God

Don't be deceived by their acquisition of mundane things, It is a mandate from the Kingdom of Darkness that they have to show it

What you see in the exterior is what you give credence to, the strict Legalistic rules imposed on Deeper life members may be as a result of Pastor Kumuyi's discipline from Mayflower where Late Tai Solarin inculcate a strict adherence on his students

somehow His part with Tai Solarin was what form the major part of his discipline and inflexible styles,
The Bible does teach us to be good example of a believer no doubts, But most of the Deeper life strict handling stems mostly from Legalism not so much as a result of Holiness

If you get to the top in the same so called holiness church, you will be amazed at the scandals that is hidden away from the public
The Dressing does not mean the dressers are Holy, it is just an outward Garb,

Holiness is a more deeper issues, It is a determined conscious effort to follow Christ without blemish.
A conscious discipline in communion with Christ, secret prayer, study of the word of God and commitment to obedience of God's word
in all, Deeper life succeeded in drawing the attention of her member to the Bible, which most times may be (Head Knowledge) in recent times
If you met Deeper life members of the 70s, You will will want to be a christian, you could practically touch a true christian life, they are genuine, these are what they are in public as in private life, same cannot be said of many of the present crop that are merely excited for the bygone glory of the church without deep abiding christian life. there are strange elements these days who are merely associating with outward apparels, devoid of true life

And this kleptomanias are fasting?

The Religion does not stop them from stealing,
It does not prevent them from abusing a minor, or even women
It does not stop them from being promiscuous,
It does not stop them lying,
Do you see how the Area boys among them will still say things like "If not that i am fasting, I would have"
The fast is just a temporal break from the evil heart that they carry,
They continue in the fasting Like Him or continue after the fasting
That is why they prefer it to true Faith that condemns the evil in human nature
It is the religion of the broad way

This verse is a direct rebuke to all who prefer the broad ways
"13 Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:

14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it." Jesus Matthew 7:13-14
